2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · US61 MPS

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, showing an improving trend in mechanical presentation. The most recent MOT conducted on 16 May 2025 at 92,428 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the previous owner successfully addressed any outstanding mechanical issues. While the history shows a pattern of immediate passes following failures, the transition to clean sheets in the latest two tests suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a functional operational standard. The mileage profile reflects consistent high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 13,200 miles per year over its seven-year life. Between May 2023 at 69,667 miles and May 2025 at 92,428 miles, the vehicle covered over 22,000 miles in just two years. This rapid accumulation is typical for a commercial Transit used for business but naturally accelerates the wear on drivetrain components, suspension, and braking systems. The intervals between tests are regular, suggesting the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of neglect or inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and underbody components, as the high annual mileage puts significant stress on suspension bushes, coil springs, and ball joints. Although the most recent tests are clean, the failures in 2023 and 2024 indicate that components reach the end of their service life before being replaced. Inspect the brake discs for excessive thinning or signs of binding calipers, and check for any structural corrosion on the chassis and exhaust mounting points, which are common areas of failure on high-mileage vans of this age.
